It is not slower. But those % values are bad, because they don't
contain CPU usage of the X11 process. With DGA x11 doesn't use CPU (it's
"disabled") but with -vo X11 mplayer just pass memory pointer to X11
and then the X11 process eats the cpu.

audio out % is influenced only if there is no enough CPU for realtime
playback.

check 'top' too for these speed tests! not only mplayer uses CPU!
